Chapter 31: The Battle in Liangqi County

In Liangqi County, Wen Chou led 60,000 Yuan troops, lined up here, and waited for the arrival of Lu Bu's army.

He didn't know that he had missed a team, and all his attention was on the upcoming Lu Bu.

Lu Bu is a very powerful person, there is no doubt about this, even his lord Yuan Shao has to be jealous, of course he does not dare to underestimate it, so he is very careful here.

Compared with Yan Liang, the elder brother of the righteous family, one of the great advantages of Wen Chou is that he is willing to learn some things with an open mind, such as rough military strategy and the art of war, although he does not dare to say that he understands everything, but he knows the basic things of arranging troops, so in the face of the menacing Lu Bu, he knows that in this case, it may be difficult for him to expect reinforcements in the rear, and Wen Chou, who can only rely on his own horses, has to line up a defensive formation that tends to be conservative.

This is not a fear of the enemy army, after all, in terms of numbers, Lu Bu's army is even smaller than them, but the problem is that among the 60,000 people under his command, the real elite force is only a little more than half, that is, nearly 40,000 people, and the rest is not an exaggeration to say that it is old and weak.

Wen Chou was also a little dissatisfied with this, he knew very well that Yuan Shao still hid the real elite in Yecheng at this time, but in the eastern Wei County, Yuan Shao's nephew Gao Gan was not much worse than him, or even worse, and when he thought of this, he was much more balanced in his heart.

Yuan Shao did this, in fact, subconsciously he didn't feel that he could deal with Cao Lu at the same time, and simply left himself a way back, but it was a big blow to the morale of the soldiers who met the enemy on the front line. Although they didn't know why they arranged this way, they also knew that with the strength of their own side, it would be difficult to win, because on the other side were the great Han Taiwei, Wen Hou, and the tiger prison god of war, who enjoyed great fame in the world and had never lost a battle, Lu Bulu Fengxian.

"It's coming!"

A lieutenant general beside Wen Chou suddenly shouted, and then Wen Chou and the others, who were lined up at the front of the military formation, were all holding their breath and staring into the distance.

The 60,000-strong army is uneven in strength in the middle army and on both flanks, although this will reduce the overall strength, but at least it will not make one side a complete weakness. And Wen Chou is in a defensive formation. But what he is looking forward to more is a direct confrontation with Lu Bu's army.

After investigation, Lu Bu's 50,000 troops and horses had already arrived a mile away, and the number of personnel had not decreased, so it was obvious that there was no possibility of an ambush in secret. What's more, Wen Chou has already checked it before. Besides, there is a vast expanse around it. It's impossible to ambush the centaurs.

In the eyes of the soldiers of Yuan Jun, he could see that some small black dots appeared on the distant horizon, and then connected into a whole line. Eventually, in their field of vision, a torrent of steel was formed.

The soldiers of the Yuan Army, who had been holding their breath and concentrating, suddenly widened their eyes at that moment, and their breathing suddenly became short and rapid, and some of them were almost suffocated before they could breathe.

They thought about how powerful their enemies would be, but they didn't expect that the first sight of them gave them huge psychological pressure, and what appeared in front of them was a row of cavalry whose whole body was wrapped in silver-white armor and only showed a pair of eyes, and the war horses under their crotches were also covered in heavy armor, and some key parts were wrapped, except for some dead ends, there was basically only a pair of eyes exposed.

Under such a load, it is of course impossible to speed up, but they seem to be running not much faster than the usual gallop, but it has brought a strong tremor of the earth, and the two sides have not yet come into contact, and the aftermath of the shock brought by their sprint has already affected the group of war horses on Yuan's side.

A burst of commotion sounded, even those most elite knights, at this time it is difficult to make their big partners fighting side by side completely quiet, unless it is a little farther away, the shock will naturally be lighter, and it is easier to appease, but at the same time, the commotion of the war horse in front can easily affect the love of the war horse behind, and this kind of contagion between the group animals is very strong.

Wen Chou had no better way at this time, so he could only shout loudly: "Stay where you are and don't move, whoever dares to move, General Ben's muzzle today will have to see blood for the first time!" ”

His threat didn't have much effect, but the horses gradually quieted down, of course it had nothing to do with him, just because the source of this panic on the opposite side was that the heavy armored cavalry suddenly spread out to both sides, and there were only five rows in front and back in total, and each row of less than a hundred heavy armored cavalry caused such a big shock, and it was also conceivable how heavy the armor on their bodies was, and after they spread out to both sides at this time, they stopped moving, and the vibration naturally stopped, but then a bigger shock began.

Wen Chou's heart tightened, and he suddenly thought that the so-called heavy armored cavalry was just to cause panic among the war horses, and he didn't plan to put them into the battlefield?

Of course, his idea is correct, in fact, with the combat effectiveness of the heavy armored cavalry under Lu Bu now, before they put on the heavy armor, they can all be called hundreds of enemies in the army, but after wearing such a load, not to mention their difficulties, the war horse under the crotch will lose its speed and flexible swinging weapon, and the combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced, and now the lethality is still not enough, and more training and longer adaptation time are needed.

In Lu Bu's thoughts, he didn't regard the heavy cavalry as a conventional weapon, the flaws were too big, and at the same time, there were no formations and weapons suitable for them now, but it was still okay to make a little trouble before the war started like today, but all of a sudden, those knights were all panting, and the war horses were also very consumed, so they simply rested on the side.

Then it was the time for the real main force to play, all the cavalry were pushed onto the battlefield by Lu Bu, they were also fully armed, their eyes were focused and vigorous, and they did not have the fatigue of a long journey, in fact, Lu Bu also let them rest and recharge their strength the night before, just for today's battle.

In addition to Yecheng and Wei County, Wei County does not have any strong cities or big cities, and the terrain is almost a smooth road, so Lu Bu calculated that Wen Chou would definitely fight directly with his own chariots and horses, if he cowered into a certain city, not only could not give full play to the advantage of Yuan Jun's numbers, but also did not conform to Wen Chou's character.

Of course, even if he was facing an enemy army with more than 10,000 people now, Lu Bu and his soldiers did not have the slightest fear.

The rows of cavalry, which had been neatly arranged and tightly packed, naturally and inevitably dispersed after they charged, and the dust that rose from behind them only added to their momentum.

In front of them, there was Lu Bu with a red BMW under his crotch, a halberd in the palm of his hand, a purple and gold crown with two pearls, and a dark red cloak on his shoulder.

When the place was within fifty paces, Yuan Jun also began a counter-charge after Wen Chou's order.

The two sides are like two torrents about to meet, looking down from above, it can be clearly seen that both sides are using one of the points as an arrow, but Wen Chou and Lu Bu are also in the same mind, and they did not plan to meet each other at the beginning, he also bypassed Lu Bu and faced the right flank of Lu Bu's army.

The two torrents finally converged, and the fierce collision made the world seem to lose its voice for a moment, but soon, all kinds of sounds became noisy and colorful, such as the crisp metal impact of weapons colliding or armor, the neighing of war horses, the terrible screams of soldiers pierced by a spear, the excited cries of eager to try after two enemies in a row, and the muffled sound of human corpses or war horses falling to the ground......

"Ahh A soldier of the Yuan army had just galloped to the front, and suddenly a big knife poked out of the horizontal, and the blade was aimed directly at him, and there was no time to dodge, and the whole body was completely cut horizontally, and the war horse below was still unconscious, still trying its best to run forward, but it actually only left the lower half of the master's body on its back, and the upper half was thrown directly into the air, and then fell heavily to the ground, and then rushed here and there, and soon trampled out of the meat pulp in place, Mixed into the near-withered grass, it was difficult to detect.

A soldier of the Yuan army and a soldier of the Lu Bu army scuffled together, their weapons had already been knocked away, and the spears and spears around them came and went, and they were magically not hurt at all, but in this melee, none of the ordinary soldiers could completely dodge all the attacks, and the sad thing for these two people was that they then died under the accidental injuries of their own soldiers.

In fact, this is a problem that is difficult to avoid in the melee, after the real red eye, no one can guarantee that their weapons are aimed at the enemy, and accidental injuries are inevitable in this case.

Of course, there are still two battlefields that are the most conspicuous in this melee, one is Wen Chou, who is worthy of the name of Hebei General, but a spear swept through the surrounding Lu Bu army soldiers, that is, those who can be called a hundred enemies, and often less than two or three rounds under him, this is because he has never faced more than a single opponent; The other place is Lu Bu's, the corpses of the soldiers of the Yuan army around him have long been piled up into a hill, and in fact, such a hill has appeared more than one before this.

Lu Bu's group combat ability has improved significantly, which depends on the mutual improvement with Zhao Yun some time ago, of course, Zhao Yun's progress is definitely greater than him, because he has never won once. (To be continued......)
